I was the first check in of the season and ended up having a dorm to myself. Place is in a great location, Spiro the owner is incredibly helpful and it had a real family vibe. Highly recommend this place

Kleines liebenswertes und Familienbetriebenes Hostel in sehr guter Lage in der entspannten Atmosphäre von Himarë. Das Frühstück ist fantastisch und wird jeden Tag liebevoll von der Mama zubereitet. Die Betten sind bequem und haben (unten) Vorhänge. Die Sauberkeit, Sicherheit, Nähe zum Meer und zum Busstop sind super! Habe mich sehr wohl gefühlt in Himarë. Man kann nur bar bezahlen! Toiletten ohne Klobrille sind unangenehm, Stockbetten wackeln beim umdrehen. Alles ist echt sehr eng!

Besitzer top, er super freundlich, wirklich immer vor Ort und hat auch sehr gute Empfehlungen zu eigentlich allem, was einem so auf einer Albanienreise an Fragen einfallen könnte. Es ist alles recht klein und übersichtlich, wodurch man aber easy mit anderen Leuten ins Gespräch kommt. Generell sehr familiär und netter Vibe. Sauberkeit ist okay :) Küche ist extrem klein, wir haben sie nicht genutzt, aber muss man eventuell warten, bis man sich selbst was kochen kann. Frühstück ist aber i...

Super cozy and peaceful place, we slept really well and always felt very safe. The people were great. It’s such a lovely family run business, the host was super attentive and helped us a lot with local recommendations and his mom made us the best local breakfast every morning. Amazing place to stay! 💛

Nice small backpacker vibed hostel few mins from the beach. The free breakfast was great and different each day I stayed. I believe this place is family and volunteer run- all the staff was great. the bed was comfy enough, though I was scared to roll off the top bunk. wish there was more then two bathrooms and the kitchen was quite small. would recommend for the location though. had free drinking water. laundry available for a fee. outdoor area for socializing and a smoke was great.

It was a cute tiny hostel. Very central, the staff was great. The rooms where quite small but it was just 2 of us there so it was okay. The staff was lovely though.

The dorms were really nice and spacious with chargers for each bed, and curtains. The outdoor space was also really super and good for chilling and meeting other travellers. The hosts/owners were really friendly and helpful, giving me some advice about travel. I found the toilet situation a bit odd in that one shower didn't have a curtain, with the result of everything getting wet. This could easily have been fixed.... 🤷 The toilets also didn't have seats or lids, which was a bit odd...

Himara Downtown Hostel is not just a Hostel - it became home. It's such a cute little place in the middle of town, around the corner is the beach - Perfect! I loved my stay

Such a great place, 2min from the beach. Breakfast is made by the sweet lady and the volunteers are great for fun hangouts. It’s a smaller family hostel, perfect with a chill and friendly vibe.

First to the positive points: - Location is perfect - Breakfast was lovely - And if you are lucky you have a big bedroom (they were clean) But for this money you will get way better accommodations in Albania. Negative points: - really small dorm with no curtains - bathrooms were really dirty - no toilet seats - staff was not really motivated to work, felt disturbed if you asked something - evening were loud and party atmosphere (was okay because they ended soon)
